ClimbPath
It is 180 meters long with an elevation gain of 55 meters. The start of the route is reached by scrambling down slippery rocks from the path. Right at the beginning, you must overcome two significant upward steps; then, after a brief rest and a short climb, you find yourself at the start of a long traverse. Progress is easy at first, but the wall increasingly pushes you outward, and finally, after an awkward descent, you step onto the top of the "Great Wall." Here, you continue traversing, and after an easy descent, you find yourself looking up at the "Exposed Ridge" from below. After a few difficult moves on the left side of the ridge, the climb becomes an enjoyable, easy scramble leading to the "Resting Point." This section is the first crux of the route. Two even harder sections follow; those who wish to do so can exit the route via a path leading down to the left. Those continuing on gradually climb above the treetops, where the gorge and the "Castle Panorama" open up before them. After an easy, airy traverse, you step onto a ledge that leads to the "Shield." You can conquer this 15-meter wall section with a bold push after a few difficult moves. Here, following a few easier steps, you can catch your breath next to the summit box. Anyone satisfied with this level of difficulty can exit the route by taking a few steps upward. From here, only 30 meters remain, culminating in the "Tricky Wall." We reach the lower corner of the wall via grassy steps, then traverse along an increasingly outward-leaning section to the final short, vertical rise. Here, a tricky step-up followed by a few technical moves allows us to conquer the third crux. A few more steps bring us to the top of the wall, where we can admire the magnificent panorama. The view is unparalleled: the wild gorge with the first via ferrata on its cliffs, and the majestic Csesznek Castle enthroned above. The sight is particularly exciting when climbers fill the "Siegers' Path" (Ostromlók Útja).
Rental is available, which is near the parking lot.

The secured section (steel cable) measures 180 meters. During the climb, you will overcome an elevation gain of 55 meters.
The route is technically and physically very demanding (difficulty D), but relatively short. It requires explosive strength and a strong grip, while overall endurance is less important.
The essentials are a certified via ferrata set (energy absorber), climbing helmet, climbing harness and sturdy footwear. Via ferrata gloves are also strongly recommended. Due to the difficulty level D, we recommend bringing a resting sling for safer and more comfortable breaks.
